Is my Nordic Ski Lab membership helping me get results? Yes, yes, a thousand times, yes! I came to the website as a novice and am already passing people on the trail.
Nordic Ski Lab is a treasure trove of extraordinarily useful material that has helped ignite my newfound passion for this wonderful sport! I now understand the mechanics underlying good skating technique and that has made all the difference.
These guys make you see technical details that you don’t see by yourself watching World Cup videos. After watching their offset video, I quickly realized some flaws in my technique, applied them and immediately saw massive improvement in my weekly uphill intervals.
I just want to say that your website has meant a tremendous amount to me. I am a life long skier who always struggled with skating technique, despite skiing Division 1 in college. Now I understand the forces involved and consider myself a good skate skier. I don’t know of another site that communicates skiing as well as yours, including the Norwegian videos!
I really like the overall approach to delivery of everything you have accomplished..incredible video, very clear, thoughtful and polite (kindness always come to mind!) and truly expert commentary, effective use of Coach’s Eye app, which I am trying to emulate.
Nordic Ski Lab has taken my ability to help the skiers on my team to another level. The courses on technique are very thorough and the skiers are excellent. The forum discussions are interesting and informative as skiers and coaches discuss all topics relating to Nordic skiing. A fantastic resource for anyone interested in Nordic skiing.
